Program Overview

Adult intensive outpatient program overview

The intensive outpatient program (IOP) at Options Behavioral Health System provides therapy and support services to adult men and women ages 18 to 65 who have been struggling with substance abuse, chemical dependency, and/or certain other mental health disorders.

As is the case with all levels of care at Options, IOP features clinically sophisticated care provided in a warm and supportive environment where all are treated with the utmost dignity and respect. The professionals who provide treatment in IOP place a premium on establishing and maintaining close relationships with patients and their families in order to ensure that each person who heals with us receives the focused attention that will empower him or her to achieve successful long-term recovery.
